I agree. I cannot see how things will get better.

I can only imagine what's going to happen if we lose at home to Palace.....who, incidently, will have Bolaise back for that game.

The future still does not look rosey.

I went to today's game. Could get an away ticket and at the time was very proud of my club and the support it has that sells out its tickets in a matter of hours.

I was hidden away in the North Lower Terrace with a few fellow Albion fans.

The game was typical Albion fayre this season. Strong defensively in the first half. No creativity in midfield and no promise of a goal as there was little attacking action.

The second half started well. But as I always tell people. We are at our most vulnerable when 1-0 up and sure enough we came a cropper. 2-1 down and chasing the game meant 3-1 was very possible.

Upset, disenchanted and in need of a sign of change.

I am vocally proud of the Albion fans. Passionate, loud and always super friendly - The moron that dented my claim on best fans in the land needs not just banning for life, but should be hung, drawn and quartered

[Squirrel Regis]

Ashamed of the team and ashamed of the low life who could have blinded Chris Brunt.

[Mosestheballwinner]

I want the person responsible banned for life from The Hawthornes. He or She isn't one of us anymore.

Ashamed of the team and ashamed of the low life who could have blinded Chris Brunt.

Likewise squirrel, the team and the low life are unforgivable both have let us genuine supporters down and are smearing our good name for all the wrong reasons.

Baggieman, while I agree that TP should be coming to the end of his reign, I can't agree that he's to blame or because of him has culminated in the lout throwing the coin. 99.9999% of us can moan and rant about TP and his antics without resorting to thuggery.

The mindless cowardly act deserves the full force of the law and a lifetime ban, and while TP takes the blame for boring, negative and piss poor performances he can't be used as an excuse for the way a scumbag of an individual behaved. 

[Dingle-Dingle]

Disgraceful.......... Including the football. Sigh. DD

[Zinman]

Just back after delays on the M40, in desperate need of alcohol. sadly the moron with the coin will deflect attention away from the pathetic performance by the team and particularly from Pulis. It is glaringly obvious that we need some creativity in the centre of the pitch - passes through the opposition defence would actually suit our "strikers" much more than hopeful crosses - but Pulis' first move is to throw another lump up front, hoof the ball out of defence and hope that something might happen. When Pritchard finally got on he created more in 10 minutes than the rest of the team managed all day. I cn forgive Fletcher for his late miss as he was probably as astonished as I was that someone in an Albion shirt was capable of putting in such a perfect ball.
Pulis must go as soon as possible....and he can Sandro with him.

[Mosestheballwinner]

I agree Zinman. What good is Sandro if he's knackered after 50 minutes? Another poor signing by Pulis.

[Beefy 1965]

Sorry I'm not sure how to post a video off twitter.
If any of you have twitter accounts follow me BeefyBaggie1965 I have just retweeted a Video that clearly shows the lad who threw the coin at Brunty.
He is wearing a bright yellow jacket and other Albion fans are trying to grab him.
He looks around 16 -18
If anybody knows this prick...
You know what to do

How about applause on 11 Mins in support of Brunty in front of the Cameras on Saturday night and show him we care
COYB !!!!!!!

I've tried to calm down after that utter tripe, but it's a difficult one to take.

I said after we beat Peterborough that I thought it was a waste because Reading would probably do us, but what was most frustrating was that they were not even a good side by Championship standards.

I've been critical of Pulis' decision to bring Foster straight back in because to be honest, Myhill was looking steady for best part. When Foster returned against Bristol City he looked a bag of nerves yet still played (and made mistakes) in games following. I thought he was at fault for the first 2 goals again today.

But that isn't my biggest frustration, that is TP's reliance on playing square pegs in round holes each and every week.

Brunt isn't a left back, but i'll forgive that because he's done well there for the best part this season.

However, Chester just isn't a right back. The guy never gets past the half way line. Sess IMO never performs on the right wing, for me, his crossing is aimless and he's at his best playing off the striker in the drifting role.

Most frustratingly, Saido isn't number 10. He's one of the best in the league at making runs in behind defenders and finishing first time, but he's absolutely useless at linking play.

IF TP does insist on playing Saido in this role, surely Lambert has to play up top with him. At least he can hold the ball up and lay Saido off. Saido and Rondon are too similar in their efforts to get in behind and we've seen time and time again that they just don't work together.

IMO, the 4-4-2 is a complete waste of time with our personnel anyway. What's the point having 2 centre forwards on the pitch when there's never a midfielder get high enough up the pitch to put them through? Surely we could deploy Saido in his proper out and out striker role with Sess in behind and Pritchard out wide? That would instantly give the team more balance.

As for Rondon, he gets slated at times and it's understandable because he does look useless. But having seen him at Malaga, the guy was a good player; I just don't see him as suitable for getting on the end of big hoofs for 90 minutes.

Frankly, it's becoming tiresome to watch and seems to be getting worse.

I think TP for inheriting a team in the doldrums and keeping us up last year and hopefully he'll do the same this year. But beyond that, I'm in the camp for replacing him in the summer with someone who can take us forward.

We play dross football week in and week out just the 'survive in the Premier League'. With a good cup run, maybe I could accept this; but when we're struggling to get past poor opposition from the lower league, it's just not good enough.
